No loan moves for Sundowns’ Goss
Pitso Mosimane still picked Goss despite the goalkeeper having made only one appearance for Sundowns this season.
Ricardo Goss, a Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, is currently without a potential loan deal as Mamelodi Sundowns seems unwilling to let him go. Goss has experienced two loan spells during his tenure at Sundowns, starting in 2020 after leaving Bidvest Wits. Last season, he played as the first-choice goalkeeper for Siwelele FC, also being part of the South African national team's squad that participated in the FIFA World Cup.
However, Sundowns rejected the club's offer to retain his services at the start of this season, deeming him essential for their upcoming busy calendar.
Goss currently holds the second-string position behind Ronwen Williams, which hasn't raised concerns about his inclusion in the national team. Despite making only one appearance for Sundowns this season, coach Pitso Mosimane opted to keep him on the squad. Speculation existed that other teams may attempt to secure Goss during the January transfer window, but Sundowns are not planning on releasing him.
For the time being, Goss must compete for his spot, aiming to secure playing time in cup competitions as Williams is expected to feature in most league and CAF Champions League matches.
